They are exactly right. IQ does not define intelligence, it's an imperfect measure, and semen definitely does not define who your child will be (there's, like, an entire other gamete involved? and environmental effects?).

So some right wing blogger is hopping mad because gay rights activists want to take away his guns. (I haven't the faintest idea what recent event could have led them to that conclusion.) But he has a brilliant plan to stop them:

Quote

f these gays want to try and attack the rights of gun owners, all gun owners need to point out is that if they begin to feel hostile to gays, and begin to see gays as too emotional and illogical, they might begin to not believe the testimony of gays in trials.

Quote

There are about 102 million gun owners out there (32% of all Americans), and all a defense attorney would need to do is find one to put on the jury of a man who beat a gay guy, stabbed a transgender, or murdered a transvestite. Did a transgender man use the girls locker room when a pee wee swim team was changing, and get beaten to a pulp? Don’t think the beater is going to get convicted on the word of the gay.

Quote

If gays think guns should be banned, then the gay’s testimony is meaningless, and I would assume any evidence had been fabricated in an overemotional meltdown.

Quote

The potential consequences against gays would admittedly be dangerous. Millions of people who want to commit crime might begin targeting gays specifically, knowing that they would be unlikely to be convicted, given how all it would take is one of the 102 million gun owners to land on their jury – and the lawyers of the perpetrator would undoubtedly be looking for gun owners to put on the jury.

Quote

Gang members, who need to kill somebody as an initiation might seek out gays as victims, thinking they would be a free kill, and sadly there would be nothing I could do about that.

Quote

Those prone to engage in violence against gays specifically because of homophobia might be emboldened, and gay attacks could increase precipitously, and obviously all of those gay attackers going free without any consequence would be unfortunate.

Quote

However gays do not seem to consider our safety when contemplating their actions. They are all too happy to try and make us and our families less safe by preventing us from getting the guns we want to protect them. So the idea that gays would be less safe due to our realization that gays are too emotional and cannot be trusted, would not be of concern to me. I would have to vote my conscience – every time – and I suspect most other gun owners would as well.

It doesn't concern you, Sister, that kind of absolutist view of the universe? Right and wrong determined solely by a single all-knowing, all powerful being whose judgment cannot be questioned and in whose name the most horrendous acts can be sanctioned without appeal?

Being required by someone else’s religious beliefs to behave contrary to one’s sexual identity is degrading and disrespectful.

[Black Lives Matter] is a terrorist organization and if we had any other president would have already been classified as one.

EDIT: Same person, same thread:

The only smoke here is in the black version of KKK, also put yourself in the officers shoe's. The issue is race, the issue is a criminal culture in the US. Fortunately the opinion of most folks in this thread matters not a single bit when it comes to resolution of this.

The whole Black Lives Matter movement was found on a series of lies and dishonesty. As such it has almost no credibility to any rational thinking person, who can get past the liberal mindset of race is king.
